16 METRO Friday, November 13, 2009 D Pocket art:Postcards featuring works by artists such as David Bailey and Yoko Ono are displayed at Londons Royal College of Art, ahead of a one-day sale on November 21 Picture: PA The Big Picture That is capitalism Go on Frontline: Pat Kenny This public vs private sector war is boring me. I remember when Metro Mail used to be kinda fun now its just a sinking ship full of moaning a***holes. Its simple:Your pay is cut whether you like it or not. Writing a letter in to Metro Mail criticising Bob or Mary or Franks private sector pay is not going to change a thing.You voted for this Government to run this place in a capitalist way and that is what you are getting. A money-minded Government who cares more for the rich than it does for the working class. That is capitalism. If you want to whinge, take it to the streets at the next protest march or go onto Frontline and whinge to Pat Kenny.You could write a letter to your local Fianna Fil minister or someone else in power (where it might actually make a difference). Grey Fox Will people please open their eyes and see that the Government started this divide to divert from the real issue to protect the rich and to lower all wages. There will be pay cuts in the public sector and wages will drop even further in the private sector. Its all about making this country competitive again, while protecting the wealthy. Nama, the Golden Circle and tax write-offs ring a bell anyone? This corrupt Government is laughing at us! Bongo Louise (non-AIB worker) and LM seem to think that every member of the public service is an overpaid waster who pushes paper all day. Have either of you ever required the services of a nurse or a garda? How about an ambulance or the fire Dublins best-read letters page Metro Mail E-mail letters to mail@metroireland.ie with a name.

Hell be sorely missed. :(LMK Proud as punch: Louise, you dont want to throw your parents sacrifice back in their face? Im sure all the nurses, teachers, garda and social workers are delighted by your comments. Youre a snob and nothing more. I hope your parents are very proud! Cat Reality bites: GG, God love you for having to survive on 50k in your public service job. My colleagues and I earn 21k, all have college degrees and took paycuts and cant get medical cards either. Get real please. Boris b Hot extra : Has anyone actually seen one of those girls Ryanair put in their calendars? I know I havent. Is there a charge for hot cabin crew Im not aware of? Adam Warm and furry: Hairy Eve, with all your body hair Im sure youll be keeping warm this winter as you sit at home with your cats! Paul In Brief brigade? All of these people are public servants, and in my opinion they dont get paid nearly enough for what they do. C The Government and media are actively trying to create divides within Irish society. Ibec have used divide and conquer tactics to destroy our basic values and rights. While public and private workers butt heads, cuts will be introduced unopposed and the only winners from our infighting will be the super-rich yet again. People like LM have fallen for their web of lies. I hope the rest of us will see what is really going on before it is too late. Rashers, by e-mail It is about time that this FF-led Government cut the welfare bonus. I work in the private sector and I work over Christmas every year. Why should myself and my 110 colleagues pay PRSI to pay for a Christmas bonus to people who do not work? Brian Cowen fan Sendusyour txt Where was that guy Raz from, in the Xbox article? His console getting banned was like tellin someone their dog died. He needs to get laid! RP Back to a delayed, stuffy and overcrowded train service. Keep the 33X bus service, I say. AE Congrats to the Government in dividing working class people and deflecting the publics attention from their pathetic handling of the economy! Lazy LM. Jo Hairy Eve, although you made a valid point and yes depilation is a big word Im not familiar with, you started your gripe with omg. Not very clever is it? Chop buster To Louise non-AIB worker, Im sure your parents are proud of you and your education. What a pity all the money in the world cant teach you manners and humanity. Lets hope you dont end up in accident and emergency with all those lazy good-for-nothing paper pushers to look after you.
